Adzuki Bean Hummus

1 Soak the adzuki beans overnight in filtered water. 2 Cook the soaked beans until tender. I cook all beans in my beloved Instant Pot u2013 an electric pressure cooker u2013 and it takes about 5 minutes of pressure with natural release. Not long at all, unlike black turtle beans that take whopping 35 minutes in the pressure cooker. You can also cook the beans in a pot of simmering water on stovetop u2013 just add a little more water several times as the water evaporates. You'll have about 3 cups of cooked adzuki beans. 3 Drain the beans well. In a food processor fitted with an S blade, process the beans, garlic, tahini, lemon juice and salt until smooth (or with a bit of texture if you like it that way). Adzuki beans are pretty juicy when cooked well, so there is no need to add extra water or oil (as you would when making chickpea hummus). 4 Taste, and adjust seasoning / lemon juice / tahini to your liking.
